FEATURE ALBUM

Parkway Drive – Ire
[Resist Records]

Recorded with a self awareness that only comes to those who have been at the forefront of their genre for over a decade, Parkway Drive's fifth LP is quite possibly the most apt airing of the band's manifesto in full-length form.

Operating quite squarely in a specific mind-frame, the Byron metalcore powerhouse makes no excuses for society's transgressions. With gnarled anthems like Crushed, Fractures and main attraction The Sound of Violence, Parkway are as immediate as ever, re-setting the bar for the bands who followed their footsteps, but maintaining the sludge to remind you –and perhaps themselves –where they originated.
